What trans and diff ratio you running? Does 'good grip' mean slicks?

The manual trans/3.7 combo should run flat 12'ish, providing traction is ok.

Make sure you give her plenty of revs out the hole! Those slicks can bring the revs down real quick if you go too easy ;)
Which track you going to? |

My ZC Fairlane has 375rwhp and runs 11.53. It has 4.11's and a 4500rpm high stall. I was using M/T street radials too. You'll probably run a high 11 or low 12 with the diff ratio you have like everyone has stated. Good luck and have fun with it.
